Hi tappyt,
Perhaps you've already spoken to a GamCare advisor, but we'll be happy to chat through things again. (It's a free call on our 0808 8020 133 number and you'll find us easy to talk to).
I can sense how much you want to take back control - and finding a way to put the gambling out of reach is indeed a positive first step, so we'll try to help with that.
Accepting that losses are gone might well present a tough challenge, but maybe we can help you cross that hurdle, too.
There will be a way forward with debt, but it's vital to get the gambling under control. You'll also need to be creative about replacing the gambling with other stuff, but the Forum is a great place to share ideas.
This is a pivotal time of year for people to reflect on the past and to build towards a better year ahead.
Wishing you well,
Kind regards,
Robert

I am new to this forum too. I know exactly where you are coming from. I wish you every success in your fight against this horrible addiction. I am on day 8, and I know that, at the very least, I have saved 80 pounds.
Every best wish
